FATHER OF ATTORNEY NILES.

A Prominent Citizen of Salem, Cr.,
 Passes Away Suddenly.
 Attorney w. P. Niles yesterday received telegram announcing the sudden death of his father, who has resided in Salem, Ct., for fifty years. The deceased was eighty-three years of age, but had not outlived his useful ness both to his family and his fellow clti- zens ill the,town in which he had 80 long re- sided. It is needless to say that Salem will lose one of it's best, most noble and pure cit izene. For half century he was regular attendant at the Presbyterian church, where for over thirty years he held deaeonship. His kindly face will be missed from the town where he was noted for his Christian character, spotless integrity and sterling honesty, He was tender-hearted, forgiving and benevolent, and had no enemies. Mir. Niles was substantial farmer. He leaves two sons, William F., of this city, and Ed win, who has lived at the family homestead from his birth. His daughter is the wife of William Morgan of Hartford, who is associa- ted with Rogers Brothers, the manufac- turers of that city. The father of the de- ceased, Amos IA. Niles, was town clerk and judge of the Probate court in Groton, Ct., for many years.
